Hans Zimmer creates music for imaginary character Doris

nme.com

Hans Zimmer, an Oscar-winning composer, recently shared that he writes music for an imaginary woman named Doris. He has used this character as inspiration for his work over the past 40 years. Zimmer is known for his scores in films like Gladiator, the Pirates of the Caribbean series, and Dune. He believes in creating music for ordinary people rather than just for directors or studios. In an interview, he described Doris as a single mother from Bradford, UK. She works hard to provide for her two kids and faces daily struggles. When Doris decides to spend her limited money on a movie, Zimmer wants to ensure she has a memorable experience. This motivation drives his creativity. Zimmer's new concert film, "Hans Zimmer & Friends: Diamond in the Desert," was released in cinemas on March 19. Despite his achievements, Zimmer expressed disappointment about the exclusion of his score for Dune: Part Two from this year’s Oscars. He found the reason for disqualification based on previous material to be rather silly. Alongside his film, Zimmer has also announced plans to reimagine Saudi Arabia's national anthem.
